Anyone know where to find reference to seismic support requirements for light fixtures?

The building code we are using is the International Building Code but there is nothing specific in teh code that i can find.

Thanks.

2006 IBC section 1613.1 will refer you to ASCE 7 for seismic requirements.

ASCE 7 also will reference CISCA Guidelines for Seismic Restraint for Direct-hung Suspended Ceiling Assemblies (zones 3-4).
